Cabin was beautiful. Seating for 20 outside. 10 covered seating and 10 open air. Pleasant surprise to experience lots of upgrades we didn’t see in the listing. Kitchen had everything we could need to feed our family of 10.

The dog friendly and kid friendly features were more than advertised. It's on a quiet dead end road. Didn't have to worry about lots of traffic. The hiking options behind the cabin were a surprise. A second full size fridge allowed for cold drinks by the deck. Master suite opens to the deck and allowed me to sneak out for an early morning walk to river.
